The Devil Wears Prada


Meril Streep

Anne Hathaway


These clips show the basic themes of Marxist theory, Gramsci's theory, as well as the ideas of ideology hegemony, agents, subjectivity and identity from Chris Barkers "Cultural Studies," text book as well as the effects the mass media has on the culture of the world.









These few clips show the main character Andrea struggling to change her identity in order to survive in her work environment.


This clip expresses the enormous bussiness that fashion has created, and the extreme importance of Media in order to promote and sell new trends to consumers. The behind the scenes with the actors shows the actual perception of why fashion is such a big deal to the movie and the western culture.
